Our Jesuit Tradition

Saint Joseph's University was founded by the Jesuits — visionary Catholic priests and educators who prioritized social justice, the pursuit of excellence, service to others, and the development of the whole person, or, cura personalis. One of only 28 universities and colleges nationwide exemplifying this 500-year- old Jesuit tradition, SJU offers each of its students an educational experience that will hone their skills, expand their knowledge, grow their faith and strengthen their character.

My favorite part about SJU is the beautiful campus, the great location, and the campus community. Everyone loves it here and you can feel that energy everywhere you go.

My #1 tip for your college search is to visit! By visiting the campus you can see if it feels right; the people, the classes, and especially the food!

If I could take any class at SJU I would LOVE to take a class in Food Marketing

When in Philadelphia, definitely go to the art museum, run up the rocky steps, eat at one of the many great restaurants, and enjoy a concert outside. Philadelphia has so much to offer college students. Get out and explore.

When I'm not at work you can find me enjoying the outdoors, reading a book, or dining outside.
